[QUOTE="Soggy Bottom, post: 1690556, member: 27833"] I've read and heard the rule of thumb for a feedlot setup is around 250sq' to 600sq' of pen size per head. Bunk space is around 1' per head also. Is there a rule of thumb for pre-conditioning traps or pens for space per animal? If someone wanted to maximize pasture size without crowding calves what would an average space needed be? These calves will be fed twice a day and have constant access to high quality grass hay. Thanks [/QUOTE]
